Wei Caiwei said to her heart: It's too difficult to be half-dead. In fact, I'm better at killing directly.

But Lu Ying talked about Ding Rukui, "... Shi Lang wanted him to die. My father tried to postpone the death sentence every year and lied that Ding Rukui was sick. Shi Lang Yan was still worried and wanted to go to the death row to see him in person.

As soon as he heard that Ding Rukui's life was related, Wei Caiwei was able to do it immediately, her mind turned quickly, and her eyes fell on the room where she was used to admire a pot of anthurium.

Wei Caiwei immediately picked off a thin, thin stamen from the anthurium stamens with a veil. He picked five stamens in total and said, "Take me to see Ding Rukui."

Ding Rukui’s death row is clean and tidy, and there is a wall of writing. Yan Shifan must not let Yan Shifan see that Lu Bing cared for him so much.

Lu Ying immediately took Ding Rukui out and put him in the cell of Zhou Xiaoqi who had already been blinded. Zhou Xiaoqi was moved to a secret place.

Zhou Xiaoqi's left eye was wrapped in gauze, and his right eye looked bitterly at Wang Daxia and Wei Caiwei. It was set to prevent him from screaming, and a cloth sliver was tied to his mouth, so he could only make a whining sound.

Wang Daxia sneered and said, "You chased me from Wanping to Daxing. You almost shot me as a hedgehog at the Shuntian Mansion Yamen. You almost blinded Doctor Wei in the eyes. You pay for it, and you have today!"

Zhou Xiaoqi was carried away, and Ding Rukui walked in. The air in this cell was so dirty that even the color of the wall itself was unrecognizable, as if it had been smeared by death row prisoners in past dynasties.

There are also various blood stains on the wall, including blackened goods and bright red blood spots. At first glance, the one-eyed condemned prisoner splashed up.

This cell is suffocating!

In addition, there was a woman in the cell who claimed to be the adopted daughter of the Wei Nanshan husband and wife last night. She spread out her handkerchief with five slender stamens on it. "Chew them up and swallow them, and your throat will become tight. Tingling, breathless while speaking, and salivating, looking horribly ill."

"But it doesn't matter. After drinking a lot of water, I will prescribe a prescription for clearing away heat and detoxification, and it will recover soon."

Lu Ying pointed to a set of dirty prison clothes on the broken mat, "Hurry up, put it on, lie down, grab your hair and pretend to be sick."

Ding Rukui didn't know why.

Wei Caiwei said: "If you still want to see the moonlight and Ding Wu last night, then you can cooperate."

This sentence really works.

Ding Rukui chewed five anthurium stamens in one breath, and changed clothes while swallowing.

After Huacai entered his throat, it worked immediately. Ding Rukui only felt that countless knives were cutting his throat, and a pair of invisible hands pinched his neck. He had difficulty breathing, but he would not die.

He was forced to breathe with his mouth and nose, his chest undulated violently, and transparent saliva flowed from his lips.

He looked half-dead, and Lu Ying asked Wang Daxia to wear his fetters.

Wang Daxia moved a pair of ten kilograms of fetters and put them on Ding Rukui's ankle.

Wei Caiwei mixed the colors and painted various traces of beatings and abuses on his bare skin.

Yan Shifan drank two cups of tea with Lu Bing and was invited to the underground death row by Lu Ying.

At the entrance, Lu Ying handed Yan Shifan a piece of cloth sandwiched with thin cotton, "The smell inside is unpleasant. Most of the prisoners are sick. I am afraid that Yan Shibo will be smoked. Cover his nose and mouth with this."

Lu Ying first gave a demonstration, tied himself, and asked, "Does Yan Shibo need help from a junior?"

Yan Shifan's arms were short and fat, and he had limited mobility.

Of course, life matters. Yan Shifan nodded, still joking with Lu Ying, "Fortunately, there are two pieces of white cloth. If it is black, we are masked thieves."

The elders tell jokes, even if they are not funny, the younger ones must laugh. Lu Ying smiled in response to the scene: "Yan Shibo is really funny."

Lu Ying tied a piece of cloth to Yan Shifan.

The underground entrance is a long and narrow slope. There are bluestone slabs on the **** and there are traces of the broom slipping by. At first glance, it was cleaned in a hurry. There is a guard holding a horn lamp leading the way.

The underground death row cell is like a labyrinth. For fire prevention, only the guards hold lanterns in their hands to patrol the prison cells. Therefore, at night, death row prisoners do everything except sleep. No more.

Those who were not asleep were lying on the bed with their eyes closed, and even if they felt light approaching, they didn't bother to open their eyes.

There is no vitality, no vitality, just walking corpses waiting to die.

Yan Shifan turned a blind eye to this scene, winning and losing. He and his father, Yan Song, stood in court for more than 30 years. They sent their opponents here because their father and son have been winning.

Can't afford to lose. The higher the position, the harder the fall, and the more unable to lose. Taking a step back over the cliff, Yan Shifan learned that when the call for reversing Ding Rukui was getting louder, he must completely choke the hidden dangers to avoid being bitten back.

"Arrived."

The guard placed the shofar lamp on the table in front of the cell.

There is a five-branched lamp stand on the table, and five candles are inserted on the lamp stand. There is also a smoking cage under the table with mosquito coils burning in it.

"Shibo Yan, please sit down." Lu Ying said, pointing to the only chair.

With Yan Shifan-like glutinous rice balls, his journey was too difficult for him to take off. He also covered his face mask and couldn't take it off. His head was sweaty and hot. He grew white and looked like a melting snow mountain at the moment.

Yan Shifan sat down, clutching his chest, a little breathless.

Wang Daxia, who was just in charge of setting up the tables and chairs, unfolded a folding fan and waved it vigorously to fan Yan Shifan.

Yan Shifan just wanted to quickly finish watching Ding Rukui and leave.

"Ding Rukui, do you remember me?" Yan Shifan asked.

There was a man lying motionless on the broken mat in the cell, still turning his back to him. Lu Ying approached and banged on the iron railing with an iron rod, "Ding Rukui, get up quickly, Master Yan asks you something!"

Ding Rukui's body shivered suddenly, first bounced up suddenly, and then slowly turned around. When he turned around, the iron chain on his ankle rattled loudly.

Ding Rukui rubbed his eyes, "You are... Master Xiao Yan."

His voice was hoarse, as if it had been polished with the roughest sandpaper.

Lu Ying said: "Don't talk nonsense, cut your tongue carefully, this is Shi Lang Yan."

The death row was too dark, Yan Shifan could hear the voice, but his face was blurred, and he said, "Come here, come closer."

Lu Ying continued to knock on the iron pillar, "Hurry up, don't let Shi Lang Yan wait too long."

Ding Rukui got off the bed, clutching his chest, dragging ten kilograms of fetters, panting for three steps, approached the iron gate, and then leaned against the iron railing.

Now Yan Shifan can see clearly that this person is indeed Ding Rukui, who was once the magister of the Ministry of War. All the prisoners in the world have a look: their hair is greasy and knotted, as dirty as a mop for mopping the floor, with raised cheekbones and bruises all over the body. Injury.

Ding Rukui was even more miserable. His mouth seemed to be unable to close, and he breathed heavily. Yan Shifan could hear the sound of a bellows in his chest across a table.

A string of clear saliva from the corner of his mouth was thrown onto the iron railing!

It seems that Lu Bing is right. Ding Rukui is ill, and his illness is not mild. He is so angry that he speaks vaguely, like a dream, "Shi Lang, my son...my wife is dead... Don't mess with my son."

Lu Ying punched the iron rod, "Dare to threaten Shi Lang, you are too long."

Ding Rukui suddenly stretched out his right hand from the gap in the iron rod, as if grabbing a life-saving straw, stretched forward hard, and his black nails actually touched the tip of Yan Shifan's boot!

Yan Shifan looked nauseous and nauseated, and quickly retracted his feet and asked Lu Ying, "What's wrong with him?"

Lu Ying said, "I don’t know, for a group of death row prisoners waiting to die, we can eat two meals a day. If we are sick, we will continue to eat. The case is completely closed after death. It’s impossible to ask the doctor to take medicine. Look at these death row prisoners, almost all of them are sick. This is not An Le Tang, and we have no money to buy medicine."

"But..." Lu Ying carried the horn lamp and looked closer, "Looking at his breathless appearance, it should be tuberculosis. The prisoners basically died of this disease."

When he heard about tuberculosis, Yan Shifan couldn't sit still any more, and immediately stood up and left the underground cell as if fleeing.

After he came out, Lu Ying helped Yan Shifan untie his mask first, and then took off his own. At this time, there were several braziers on both sides of the road. Atractylodes and saponins were burning in the braziers. When Lu Ying and Yan Shifan passed by, the guards burned. Pour white vinegar into my brazier, and only a few faint sounds, the scent of white vinegar and atractylodes saponins merged into a cloud of white gas.

This is the method recorded by Song Ci in the "Xin Yuan Lu" by Song Dynasty. It was originally to eliminate the bad luck after the autopsy and clean the clothes and body. Later, people discovered that this method was also miraculous in dispelling illness and plague.

Lu Ying and Yan Shifan were like clouds and mist in the white gas. After getting out of the white gas, their hair smelled of sour medicine.

Yan Shifan went back to find his relatives. The place was extremely cool and cool, and it was the place where the gods were, and the cell was in the same sky and the other underground.

Yan Shifan was shocked after eating a snack.

Lu Bing took the opportunity to bring Zhou Xiaoqi's confession over, "There is something, an inconspicuous little thing, the East Building happened to be there today, I'll just talk about it..."

Lu Bing showed Yan Shifan the part of the brush, pretending to be unbelieving, "This week Xiaoqi is very cunning. He deliberately bit the East Building in, thinking that I found the backer, so I dare not move him. Of course I won't be deceived by him. Now, with the identity of Donglou, how could it be possible to call a small banner in the district to ask questions? If Donglou is interested in the murder of Chen Qianhu and his son, just ask me directly, or ask Yinger, why bother to go near and farther."

Yan Shifan chewed on the dim sum, his three-layer chin quivered and quivered regularly, not at all surprised by Lu Bing's words, swallowed, drank half a cup of tea, and touched his lips with the veil, then said:

"Donghu still understands me. Chen Qianhu and his son are just two ants. I have no time to care about the deaths of two ants. This week Xiaoqi dare to bite me on the head to see if he is tired of life. Donghu, you will satisfy him. Well."

"This kind of bedbugs jumping around, catch someone who bites whom, slap him to death, and slap him to death. It is said to the outside that it was the bedbug who stole the money from the ant's house. The incident happened at the east window. The bedbug was furious and killed two ants. Just have an explanation to the outside world."

Yan Shifan deserves to be a ghost, and can always say in one sentence: "There is no need to spend so much manpower to investigate the death of a thousand households who walked with tea to cool the tea. He died and died, anyway, the Chen family has passed away. What do you do with so much? Jin Yiwei is doing big things. This matter should be taken care of by the Shun Tianfu Yamen. This is not because Zhou Xiaoqi has caused trouble. He fought the Beicheng Soldier Masi and Shuntianfu Yamen on the street to make things bigger. The emperor wanted Jinyiwei Yamen Take over this mess?"

Yan Shifan dipped his fingers in ice water and drew a circle on the table, "Just start with him, end with him, and quickly close the case. Your precious girl Lu Ying has lost weight because of this case. I feel distressed. It’s better to get a Japanese pirate’s intelligence contribution. The Japanese pirates in the south and the strong enemies on the northern grasslands are the enemies you Jinyiwei should pay attention to. Don’t hold the sesame seeds and lose the watermelon."

Yan Shifan's magical officialdom logic is also the same in later generations. If the problem cannot be solved, the person who caused the problem can be solved.

The head of Lu Bing suddenly said: "Chen Qianhu, father and son, Zhou Xiaoqi are all dead, and the East Building has a word, and it is clear.

Yan Shifan didn't come in vain on this trip, and got the quasi letter from Ding Rukui that he was seriously ill, and by the way, he squeezed the biting bug of Zhou Xiaoqi to death. From then on, no one knew that he accepted Chen Qianhu's 20,000 silver bribe and pushed the blame to the dead and He Qianhu. Last thing.

Yan Shifan ate and drank enough, saying goodbye, Lu Bing pretended to get up to deliver the "East Building" in person, but was held down by the East Building, "The heat is heavy outside, you have a good rest. It is enough if you have Yinger to send me. I will keep the heat stroke secret for you."

Lu Ying kept sending Yan Shifan to the gate of Shuntian Mansion before turning back. Lu Bing had already written the closing statement, saying that Zhou Xiaoqi and Chen Dalang were gambling, and they had stolen money together as a guardian, and Zhou Xiaoqi killed Chen Dalang. When Chen Qianhu noticed it again, he went to Chen Qianhu to sit on a saddle and make hands and feet, poisoning Chen Qianhu.

Lu Ying refused to accept the hastily closing the case and said, "Father, Yan Shilang was clearly lying just now. This case must have something to do with him. He borrowed a knife to kill and killed Zhou Xiaoqi with his father to kill him. He also wanted his father to be grateful to him. You know. So, why do you still do what he wants?"

"Otherwise." Lu Bing affixed a big seal on the case file. "Continue to investigate, and there are only two results. First, you caught Miss He who escaped, and murdered for your life. You must enforce the law impartially and avenge your family. Did Miss He Er push to the guillotine?"

"I--" Lu Ying was at a loss for words.

"You can't do it, you will definitely let her go." Lu Bing said: "The second result, you grabbed the line of Yan Shilang and continued to investigate, and then Yan and Lu's family turned against each other. Your second sister is not in Yan's family Live a good life, and never get peace from now on. Moreover, Shi Lang will never let you find a handle. Even if you hit your head and beat the blood, you will find nothing. The case has become a headless case and has been put on indefinitely. This is what you want to see The result?"

"I—" Lu Ying was silent again.

Lu Bing sighed: "This is the officialdom. The truth is not important. Solving the problem is important. Zhou Xiaoqi is used to solve the problem. Until this case, Miss He Er will be safe. And this person, the eighth achievement is Dr. Wei, you No poison was found in her house, but she must be very knowledgeable about poisons. You can see that she has solved the problem of Ding Rukui pretending to be sick by grabbing the stamens of Anthurium andraeanum tonight. Such a talent, if you put her under her command, she is you Arms, you have to push her into an opponent, she is a strong opponent. Understand?"

Lu Ying's eyes changed and struggled, "I understand, I am too weak now and can only be forced to solve the problem first. But I will never give up looking for the truth. In the future, if I have the opportunity, I will ask the attendant Yan to ask clearly, Chen Qianhu. Sending him twenty thousand taels of silver, what kind of transaction is between them? It is impossible to give him so much silver for no reason. And Doctor Wei, one day, she will take the initiative to speak to me."

Lu Bing looked in the eyes of a young girl in my family, "You really have grown up, and you are the emperor. Sometimes you have to be patient and wait for the opportunity."

The next day, Jinyiwei’s yamen posted a notice announcing that the murder of Chen Qianhu and his son had been solved. The murderer was his son Xiaoqi next week. He was a gambler, stole Chen’s property, and killed both father and son.

Zhou Xiaoqi was sentenced to hanging.

The double killing of father and son, which caused a storm in the city, has ended. The weather is getting hotter and hotter. After a few heavy rains, the catkins that have been floating in the capital for more than a month are finally washed away. It will be the Dragon Boat Festival soon, and the major rivers in the capital have been practicing. Rowing a dragon boat, the drums shook the sky, just waiting for the Dragon Boat Festival dragon boat race.

Wang Daxia was selected into the Jinyiwei Dragon Boat Team, and went out to row the dragon boat with the oars every day, and only returned at night.

On this morning, Wang Daxia Kang Oar went out of the yamen, and happened to ran into two soldiers leading a tall and yushu-like young man out of a carriage.

The young man looks so good that even Wang Daxia couldn't help but glance at it.

The soldier took out an unveiling post and handed it to the guard at the door, "Jinyiwei Tieling Branch, ordered by the Lu command and envoy to bring the exile Ding Wu to the capital."

Ding Wu! It turned out to be him! Upon hearing this name, Wang Daxia could no longer walk.
